Perhaps due to the alcohol or emotional pain, while drinking enthusiastically, Tian Ye suddenly stood up and told Si Xiaoshuang and Hui, “I’m feeling a bit unwell. You two continue drinking. I’m going out for some air.” He then walked towards the door. Tian Ye was missing Mei Yu, wanting to find a place to talk to her alone and also give Hui and Si Xiaoshuang some space.
Hui, hearing the young master wasn’t feeling well, instinctively stood up to check but stopped and said to Si Xiaoshuang, “Miss Si, could you please go check on the young master? He might have drunk too much.” Hui wanted to give Tian Ye and Si Xiaoshuang a chance to be alone, and going to the seaside to talk was perfect timing.
Si Xiaoshuang glanced at Hui at the table and ran after Tian Ye.
Tian Ye was walking towards the seaside, holding a bottle of wine, swaying slightly. No matter how Si Xiaoshuang called out behind him, Tian Ye didn’t turn back, only focused on drinking.
Seeing that she couldn’t get his attention, Si Xiaoshuang had to speed up and catch up, suddenly grabbing Tian Ye from behind. “Brother Tian Ye, you’re drunk. Let’s go back,” she said, trying to pull him towards the restaurant.
Tian Ye shook his head, steadied himself, saw it was Si Xiaoshuang, pushed her hand away, and pointed at her, slurring, “Who are you? Go back and keep Hui company. Don’t bother me.” Then he took another swig from the bottle.
Si Xiaoshuang noticed Tian Ye was truly drunk and tried to take the bottle. “You’re drunk. You can’t drink anymore.”
Tian Ye waved his hand and took the bottle back, shouting, “I’m drunk? Being drunk is good! When I’m drunk, I think of Mei Yu again. Yes, I’m drunk, but I know who I still love.”
You’re not drunk, but what about you?” He swayed and took another drink.
Si Xiaoshuang was stunned by the drunk Tian Ye’s surprisingly clear question, standing there stammering, “I… I… actually, oh… I.” She spoke for a long time without finishing.
Tian Ye, seeing Si Xiaoshuang’s state, got angry. He grabbed her hand, “Come, follow me. I’ll show you what love is.” He then led Si Xiaoshuang towards the nearby beach.
